Heteronukleare Metallatomcluster der Typen X4−n[SnM(CO)4P(C6H5)3]n und M2(CO)8 [μ-Sn(X)M (CO)4P(C6H5)3]2 aus Umsetzungen von SnX2 mit M2(CO)8[P(C6H5)3]2 (X = Halogen; M = Mn,Re; n = 2, 3)

Heteronuclear Metal Atom Clusters of the Types X_4?n[SnM(CO)₄P(C₆H₅)₃]_n and M₂(CO)₈[μ-Sn(X)M(CO)₄P(C₆H₅)₃]₂ by Reaction of SnX₂ with M₂(CO)₈[P(C₆H₅)₃]₂ (X = Halogene; M = Mn, Re; n = 2, 3) The compounds of the both types X_4?n[SnM(CO)₄P(C₆H₅)₃]_n (n = 3; M = Mn; X = F, Cl, Br, I. n = 2: M = Mn, Re; X = Cl, Br, I) and M₂(CO)₈[μ-Sn(X)M(CO)₄P(C₆H₅)₃]₂ (M = Mn; X = Cl, I. M = Re; X = Cl, Br, I) are prepared by reaction of SnX₂ with M₂(CO)₈[P(C₆H₅)₃]₂ (M = Mn, Re). Their IR frequencies are assigned. In Re₂(CO)₈[μ-Sn(Cl)Re(CO)₄P(C₆H₅)₃]₂ the central molecule fragment contains a planar Re₂Sn₂ rhombus with a transannular Re? Re bond of 316.0(2) pm. Each of the Sn^IV atoms is connected with the terminal ligands Cl and Re(CO)₄P(C₆H₅)₃. These ligands are in transposition with respect to the Re₂Sn₂ ring. The mean values for the remaining bond distances (pm) are: Sn? Re = 274.0(3); Sn? Cl = 243(1), Re? C = 176(5), Re? P = 242.4(9), C? O = 123(5). The factors with an influence on the geometrical shape of such M₂Sn₂ rings (M = transition metal) are discussed.     

Trigonal-bipyramidale Heterometallatomcluster vom Typ closo-Fe3(CO)9-[μ3- MRe(CO)5]2 (M = Ge,Sn)

Trigonal Bipyramidic Heteronuclear Metal Atom Clusters of the Type closo-Fe₃(CO)₉-[μ₃- MRe(CO)₅]₂ (M = Ge, Sn) The diamagnetic title compounds were prepared by the reaction of SnCl₂ (or Ge/GeCl₄), MnRe(CO)₁₀, and Fe(CO)₅ at 220°C in a glass tube. The result of the single crystal X-ray analysis of Fe₃(CO)₉[μ₃-SnRe(CO)₅]₂ showed that the triangular molecular fragment of Fe₃(CO)₉ with a fac-CO ligand arrangement at each Fe atom was capped by two μ₃-SnRe(CO)₅ groups forming a trigonal bipyramidic metal atom polyhedron. The characterization of its Sn? Re bond length [av. 272,6(2) pm] was undertaken by comparison with that of Cl₂Sn[Re(CO)₅]₂ [277.9(4) pm] obtained from a further structural determination. This type of polyhedron with Ge^IV and transition metal atoms bonds was before unknown. The ν(CO) i.r. absorption bands of both heteronuclear metal atom clusters and their electron absorption bands above λ = 350 nm were measured.     

Perfluormethyl-Element-Liganden. XVIII. Darstellung und spektroskopische Untersuchung von M(CO)5L und M(CO)4L2-Komplexen [L = MenP(CF3)3−n; n = 0–3; M = Cr,Mo, W]

Perfluoromethyl-Element-Ligands. XVIII. Preparation and Spectroscopic Investigation of M(CO)₅L and M(CO)₄L₂ Complexes [L = Me_nP(CF₃)_3?n; n = 0–3; M = Cr, Mo, W] M(CO)₅L and cis-M(CO)₄L₂ complexes, respectively [M = Cr, Mo, W; L = Me_nP(CF₃)_3?n; n = 0–3] are prepared reacting M(CO)₅ · THF or M(CO)₄norbor with L at room temperature. The cis-compounds isomerize above 50°C yielding the trans-complexes; the rate of isomerization increases with increasing number of CF₃ groups. Thermal reaction of M(CO)₆ (M = Cr, Mo, W) with P(CF₃)₃ yields M(CO)₅P(CF₃)₃ and trans-M(CO)₄[P(CF₃)₃]₂. Introduction of three P(CF₃)₃ ligands by reaction with M(CO)₃(cycloheptatriene) (M = Cr, Mo) proves unsuccessful; besides little M(CO)₅P(CF₃)₃ trans-M(CO)₄[P(CF₃)₃]₂ is formed. The new compounds are characterized by analytical and spectroscopic (n.m.r., i.r., MS) methods.     

Photochemical reactions of metal carbonyls [M(CO)6 (M = Cr,Mo and W), Re(CO)5Br,Mn(CO)3Cp] with 2-hydroxyacetophenone methanesulfonylhydrazone (apmsh)

Five new complexes, [M(CO)₅(apmsh)] [M = Cr; (1), Mo; (2), W; (3)], [Re(CO)₄Br(apmsh)] (4) and [Mn(CO)₃(apmsh)] (5) have been synthesized by the photochemical reaction of metal carbonyls [M(CO)₆] (M = Cr, Mo and W), [Re(CO)₅Br], and [Mn(CO)₃Cp] with 2-hydroxyacetophenone methanesulfonylhydrazone (apmsh). The complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, mass spectrometry, f.t.-i.r. and ¹H spectroscopy. Spectroscopic studies show that apmsh behaves as a monodentate ligand coordinating via the imine N donor atom in [M(CO)₅(apmsh)] (1–4) and as a tridentate ligand in (5).     

Stabilization of Classical [B2H5]−: Structure and Bonding of [(Cp*Ta)2(B2H5)(μ‐H)L2] (Cp*=η5‐C5Me5; L=SCH2S)

The room‐temperature reaction of [Cp*TaCl₄] with LiBH₄?THF followed by addition of S₂CPPh₃ results in pentahydridodiborate species [(Cp*Ta)₂(μ,η²:η²‐B₂H₅)(μ‐H)(κ²,μ‐S₂CH₂)₂] ( 1 ), a classical [B₂H₅]^? ion stabilized by the binuclear tantalum template. Theoretical studies and bonding analysis established that the unusual stability of [B₂H₅]^? in 1 is mainly due to the stabilization of sp²‐B center by electron donation from tantalum. Reactions to replace the hydrogens attached to the diborane moiety in 1 with a 2 e {M(CO)₄} fragment (M=Mo or W) resulted in simple adducts, [{(Cp*Ta)(CH₂S₂)}₂(B₂H₅)(H){M(CO)₃}] ( 6 : M=Mo and 7 : M=W), that retained the diborane(5) unit.     

Phosphido- und arsenido-verbrückte Zweikernkomplexe: Synthese und Struktur von (η5-C5H4R)2Zr{μ-P(SiMe3)2}2M(CO)4 (R = Me,M = Cr; R = H,M = Mo) sowie die Synthese von (η5-C5H5)2Zr{μ-As(SiMe3)2}2Cr(CO)4

Phosphido- and Arsenido-bridged Dinuclear Complexes. Synthesis and Molecular Structure of (η⁵-C₅H₄R)₂Zr{μ-P(SiMe₃)₂}₂M(CO)₄ (R = Me, M = Cr; R = H, M = Mo) and Synthesis of (η⁵-C₅H₅)₂Zr{μ-As(SiMe₃)₂}₂Cr(CO)₄ The reaction of (η⁵-C₅H₄R)₂Zr{E(SiMe₃)₂}₂ with M(CO)₄(NBD) (NBD = norbornadiene) yields the dinuclear phosphido- or arsenido-bridged complexes (η⁵-C₅H₄R)₂Zr{μ-E(SiMe₃)₂}₂M(CO)₄ (R = Me, E = P, M = Cr ( 1 ); R = H, E = P, M = Mo ( 2 ); R = H, E = As, M = Cr ( 3 )). No formation of dinuclear complexes was observed in the reaction of (η⁵-C₅H₄Me)₂Zr{P(SiMe₃)₂}₂ with Ni(PEt₃)₄, Ni(CO)₂(PPh₃)₂ or with NiCl₂(PPh₃)₂ in the presence of Mg. Complexes 1 – 3 were characterised spectroscopically (i. r., n. m. r., m. s.), and X-ray structure investigations were carried out on 1 and 2 . The central four-membered ZrP₂M ring is slightly puckered (dihedral angle between planes ZrP₂/CrP₂ 14.7°, ZrP₂/MoP₂ 14.2°). The Zr? P bond lengths are equivalent ( 1 : Zr? P1 2.654(4), Zr? P2 2.657(4) Å; 2 : Zr? P1 2.6711(9), Zr? P2 2.6585(7) Å), as are the M? P bond lengths (M = Cr ( 1 ): Cr? P1 2.513(4), Cr? P2 2.502(4) Å; M = Mo ( 2 ): Mo? P1 2.6263(7), Mo? P2 2.6311(10) Å). The long Zr ··· M distances of 3.414 Å (M = Cr ( 1 )) and 3.461 Å (M = Mo ( 2 )) indicate the absence of a metal-metal bond.

B₃N₃Me₆Cr(CO)₃ reacts with [AsPh₄] [SnCl₃] and [AsPh₄] [GeCl₃] in tetrahydrofuran to give [AsPh₄]₃[Cr(CO)₃(SnCl₃)₃] and [AsPh₄]₃[Cr(CO)₃(GeCl₃)₃], respectively. According to IR. and ¹³C-NMR.-data, the tricarbonylate anions possess a meridional configuration. The donor-acceptor properties of SnCl₃^? and GeCl₃^? in the anions [Cr(CO)₃(ECl₃)₃]^3? (E = Sn, Ge) are very similar. A similar synthesis of [AsPh₄]₃[Cr(CO)₃(SnF₃)₃] was not successful.

Heterobimetallic Phosphanido-bridged Dinuclear Complexes - Syntheses of cis-rac-[(η-C₅H₄R)₂Zr{μ-PH(2,4,6-ⁱPr₃C₆H₂)}₂M(CO)₄] (R?Me, M?Cr, Mo; R?H, M?Mo) The zirconocene bisphosphanido complexes [(η-C₅H₄R)₂Zr{PH(2,4,6-ⁱPr₃C₆H₂)}₂] (R?Me, H) react with [(NBD)M(CO)₄] (NBD?norbornadiene, M?Cr, Mo) to give only one diastereomer of the phosphanido-bridged heterobimetallic dinuclear complexes cis-rac-[(η-C₅H₄R)₂Zr{μ-PH(2,4,6-ⁱPr₃C₆H₂)}₂M(CO)₄] [R?Me, M?Cr ( 1 ), Mo ( 2 ); R?H, M?Mo ( 3 )]. However, no reaction was observed between [(η-C₅H₅)₂Zr{PH(2,4,6-^tBu₃ C₆H₂)}₂] and [Pt(PPh₃)₄]. 1—3 were characterised spectroscopically. For 1—3 , the presence of the racemic isomer was shown by NMR spectroscopy. No reaction was observed at room temperature for 3 and CS₂, (NO)BF₄, Me₃NO or PH(2,4,6-Me₃C₆H₂)₂. With Et₂AlH or PhC?CH decomposition of 3 was observed.     

[μ‐(Me3SiCH2Sb)5–Sb1,Sb3–{W(CO)5}2] und [{(Me3Si)2CHSb}3Fe(CO)4] – zwei cyclische Komplexe mit Antimon‐Liganden

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of [μ‐(Me₃SiCH₂Sb)₅–Sb¹,Sb³–{W(CO)₅}₂] and [{(Me₃Si)₂CHSb}₃Fe(CO)₄] – Two Cyclic Complexes with Antimony Ligands cyclo‐(Me₃SiCH₂Sb)₅ reacts with [(THF)W(CO)₅] (THF = tetrahydrofuran) to form cyclo‐[μ‐(Me₃SiCH₂Sb)₅–Sb¹,Sb³–{W(CO)₅}₂] ( 1 ). The heterocycle cyclo‐ [{(Me₃Si)₂CHSb}₃Fe(CO)₄] ( 2 ) is formed by an insertion reaction of cyclo‐[(Me₃Si)₂CHSb]₃ and [Fe₂(CO)₉]. The crystal structures of 1 and 2 are reported.     

[{(CO)5Cr}6Ge6]2−, A Molecular Organometallic Derivative of the Unknown Zintl Ion [Ge6]2−

Octahedral clusters from p-block elements are rare ; however, the only known molecular aggregate of this kind, [{(CO)₅Cr}₆Sn₆]²⁻, has now been supplemented by the isoelectronic cluster [{(CO)₅Cr}₆Ge₆]²⁻ ( 1 ).     

Synthese,Struktur und Reaktivität von η3‐1,2‐Diphosphaallylkomplexen sowie von [{(η5‐C5H5)(CO)2W–Co(CO)3}{μ‐AsCH(SiMe3)2}(μ‐CO)]

Syntheses, Structure and Reactivity of η³‐1,2‐Diphosphaallyl Complexes and [{(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂W–Co(CO)₃}{μ‐AsCH(SiMe₃)₂}(μ‐CO)] Reaction of ClP=C(SiMe₂iPr)₂ ( 3 ) with Na[Mo(CO)₃(η⁵‐C₅H₅)] afforded the phosphavinylidene complex [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo=P=C(SiMe₂iPr)₂] ( 4 ) which in situ was converted into the η¹‐1,2‐diphosphaallyl complex [η⁵‐(C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η³‐tBuPPC(SiMe₂iPr)₂] ( 6 ) by treatment with the phosphaalkene tBuP=C(NMe₂)₂. The chloroarsanyl complexes [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₃M–As(Cl)CH(SiMe₃)₂] [where M = Mo ( 9 ); M = W ( 10 )] resulted from the reaction of Na[M(CO)₃(η⁵‐C₅H₅)] (M = Mo, W) with Cl₂AsCH(SiMe₃)₂. The tungsten derivative 10 and Na[Co(CO)₄] underwent reaction to give the dinuclear μ‐arsinidene complex [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂W–Co(CO)₃{μ‐AsCH(SiMe₃)₂}(μ‐CO)] ( 11 ). Treatment of [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η³‐tBuPPC(SiMe₃)₂}] ( 1 ) with an equimolar amount of ethereal HBF₄ gave rise to a 85/15 mixture of the saline complexes [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η²‐tBu(H)P–P(F)CH(SiMe₃)₂}]BF₄ ( 18 ) and [Cp(CO)₂Mo{F₂PCH(SiMe₃)₂}(tBuPH₂)]BF₄ ( 19 ) by HF‐addition to the PC bond of the η³‐diphosphaallyl ligand and subsequent protonation ( 18 ) and/or scission of the PP bond by the acid ( 19 ). Consistently 19 was the sole product when 1 was allowed to react with an excess of ethereal HBF₄. The products 6 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 18 and 19 were characterized by means of spectroscopy (IR, ¹H‐, ¹³C{¹H}‐, ³¹P{¹H}‐NMR, MS). Moreover, the molecular structures of 6 , 11 and 18 were determined by X‐ray diffraction analysis.     

Metallkomplexe mit anionischen Liganden von Elementen der 4. Hauptgruppe. IX. Zum komplexchemischen Verhalten von Trichlorstannid-und Trichlorgermid-Ionen gegenüber Komplexen von Übergangsmetallen in niedrigen Oxydationsstufen

Metal Complexes with Anionic Ligands of the Main Group IV Elements. IX. Reactions of Trichlorostannide and Trichlorogermide Ions with Complexes of Transition Metals in Low Oxidation States Carhonyl trichlorostannido- and carbonyl trichlorogermido-metalate complexes have been synthesized both by photochemical and thermical substitution reactions of [ECl₃]^? ions (E = Sn, Ge) with M(CO)₆, (M = Cr, Mo, W), Fe(CO)₅ Fe₃(CO)₁₂, Co₂(CO)₈, as well as with the metalcarbonyl derivatives (π-arene)M(CO)₃, (M = Cr, Mo), (h⁵-C₅,H₅,)V(CO)₄, Mn(CO)₅,Cl, Co(NO)(CO)₃, and Fe(NO)₂,(CO)₂. Mainly the bonding properties of the [ECl₃]^? ligands are discussed by means of i.r. spectroscopic investigations. The progress of the reactions and the necessary reaction conditions show that the nucleophilic properties oft both anions [ECl₃]^? are unexpectedly small. The slightly weaker hasicity of [SnCl₃]^? compared with [GeC1₃]^? arreared, when both anions were reacted with Co₂,(CO)₈, forming the substitution product. [Co₂,(CO)₇,SnCl₃]^? and the products of a “base reaction” Cl₃GcCo(CO)₄, and [Co(CO)₄]^?.     

Photochemical reactions of M(CO)6 (M = Cr,Mo, W) with Ph2P(S)P(S)Ph2

New complexes {M(CO)₄[Ph₂P(S)P(S)Ph₂]} (M = Cr, Mo and W), (1a)–(3a), [(1a), M = Cr; (2a), M = Mo; (3a), M = W] and {M₂(CO)₁₀[-Ph₂P(S)P(S)Ph₂]} (M = Cr, Mo, W), [(1b)–(3b) [(1b), M = Cr; (2b), M = Mo; (3b), M = W]] have been prepared by the photochemical reaction of M(CO)₆ with Ph₂P(S)P(S)Ph₂ and characterized by elemental analyses, f.t.-i.r. and ³¹P-(¹H)-n.m.r. spectroscopy and by FAB-mass spectrometry. The spectra suggest cis-chelate bidentate coordination of the ligand in {M(CO)₄[Ph₂P(S)P(S)Ph₂]} and cis-bridging bidentate coordination of the ligand between two metals in (M = Cr, Mo and W).     

Synthesis,Structure, Bonding,and Reactivity of Metal Complexes Comprising Diborane(4) and Diborene(2): [{Cp*Mo(CO)2}2{μ‐η2:η2‐B2H4}] and [{Cp*M(CO)2}2B2H2M(CO)4], M=Mo,W

The reaction of [(Cp*Mo)₂(μ‐Cl)₂B₂H₆] ( 1 ) with CO at room temperature led to the formation of the highly fluxional species [{Cp*Mo(CO)₂}₂{μ‐η²:η²‐B₂H₄}] ( 2 ). Compound 2, to the best of our knowledge, is the first example of a bimetallic diborane(4) conforming to a singly bridged C_s structure. Theoretical studies show that 2 mimics the Cotton dimolybdenum–alkyne complex [{CpMo(CO)₂}₂C₂H₂]. In an attempt to replace two hydrogen atoms of diborane(4) in 2 with a 2e [W(CO)₄] fragment, [{Cp*Mo(CO)₂}₂ B₂H₂W(CO)₄] ( 3 ) was isolated upon treatment with [W(CO)₅?thf]. Compound 3 shows the intriguing presence of [B₂H₂] with a short B?B length of 1.624(4) Å. We isolated the tungsten analogues of 3 , [{Cp*W(CO)₂}₂B₂H₂W(CO)₄] ( 4 ) and [{Cp*W(CO)₂}₂B₂H₂Mo(CO)₄] ( 5 ), which provided direct proof of the existence of the tungsten analogue of 2 .

Addition of Cationic Lewis Acids [M′L_n]⁺ (M′L_n = Fe(CO)₂Cp, Fe(CO)(PPh₃)Cp, Ru(PPh₃)₂Cp, Re(CO)₅, Pt(PPh₃)₂, W(CO)₃Cp to the Anionic Thiocarbonyl Complexes [HB(pz)₃(OC)₂M(CS)]⁻ (M = Mo, W; pz = 3,5‐dimethylpyrazol‐1‐yl) Adducts from Organometallic Lewis Acids [Fe(CO)₂Cp]⁺, [Fe(CO)(PPh₃)Cp]⁺, [Ru(PPh₃)₂Cp]⁺, [Re(CO)₅]⁺, [ Pt(PPh₃)₂]⁺, [W(CO)₃Cp]⁺ and the anionic thiocarbonyl complexes [HB(pz)₃(OC)₂M(CS)]⁻ (M = Mo, W) have been prepared. Their spectroscopic data indicate that the addition of the cations occurs at the sulphur atom to give end‐to‐end thiocarbonyl bridged complexes [HB(pz)₃(OC)₂MCSM′L_n].     

Synthese,Struktur und Reaktivität des Ferrioarsaalkens [(η5‐C5Me5)(CO)2FeAs=C(Ph)NMe2]

Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity of the Ferrioarsaalkene [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs=C(Ph)NMe₂] Reaction of equimolar amounts of the carbenium iodide [Me₂N(Ph)CSMe]I and LiAs(SiMe₃)₂ · 1.5 THF afforded the thermolabile arsaalkene Me₃SiAs = C(Ph)NMe₂ ( 1 ), which in situ was converted into the black crystalline ferrioarsaalkene [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs=C(Ph)NMe₂)] ( 2 ) by treatment with [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeCl]. Compound 2 was protonated by ethereal HBF₄ to yield [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs(H)C(Ph)NMe₂]BF₄ ( 3 ) and methylated by CF₃SO₃Me to give [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs(Me)C(Ph)NMe₂]‐ SO₃CF₃ ( 4 ). [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs[M(CO)_n]C(Ph)NMe₂] ( 5 : [M(CO)_n] = [Fe(CO)₄]; 6 : [Cr(CO)₅]) were isolated from the reaction of 2 with [Fe₂(CO)₉] or [{(Z)‐cyclooctene}Cr(CO)₅], respectively. Compounds 2 – 6 were characterized by means of elemental analyses and spectroscopy (IR, ¹H, ¹³C{¹H}‐NMR). The molecular structure of 2 was determined by X‐ray diffraction analysis.     

Darstellung,Eigenschaften und Molekülstrukturen von Komplexen des versteiften dreizähnigen Chelatliganden N,N′-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-2, 6-diaminopyridin mit MII - und M0-Übergangsmetallen [MII = Ni,Pd, Pt; M0 = Cr,Mo, W]

Preparation, Properties, and Molecular Structures of a Rigid Tridentate Chelate Ligand N, N′-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-2, 6-diaminopyridine with M^II and M⁰ Transition Metals [M^II = Ni, Pd, Pt; M⁰ = Cr, Mo, W] The reaction of chlorophenylphosphane and 2, 6-Diaminopyridine give N, N′-Bis-(diphenylphosphino)-2, 6-diaminopyridine (PNP). Two types of complexes [M(PNP)Cl]Cl · L (M = Ni, L = H₂O; M = Pd, L = C₂H₅OH; M = Pt) and mer-[M(PNP)(CO)₃] · 2 THF (M = Cr, Mo, W) have been prepared using PNP. These coordination compounds have been characterized by means of i.r., u.v., ³¹P and ¹H n.m.r. measurements. The determination of the molecular structure of the two triclinic substances mer-[Mo(PNP)(CO)₃] · 2 THF and [Ni(PNP)Cl]Cl · H₂O show that the octahedral Mo(d⁶) and the square planar nickel (d⁸) compounds contain a nearly planar tridentate chelate ring system (two fused five-membered rings of the type ) in which the observed bond distances are in accordance with a π electron delocalization effect. The observed gram susceptibility of the diamagnetic Ni(d⁸) compound remains unchanged between 293 and 410 K. The relative activation property for a homogenous catalytic standard hydrogenation reaction of styrene to ethylbenzene decreases in series of catalysts of type [M(PNP)Cl]Cl · L with M^II = Ni > Pd > Pt.     

(2‐Thienylmethyl)ammonium ­trichlorostannate(II): a hybrid salt

The structure of the title hybrid salt, (C₅H₈NS)[SnCl₃], is built up from segregated layers of organic cations and Sn polyhedra. [SnCl₃]^? groups are linked together by weak Sn?Cl interactions to form a one‐dimensional polymeric chain of anions.     

Perfluormethyl-Element-Liganden. XXXII. Reaktionen der Metallhydride π-C5H5(CO)3MH (M = Cr,Mo, W) mit Diphosphanen [Ph2−nYnP]2 (Y = I,CN, SiMe3; n = 2, 1, 0)

Perfluoromethyl Element Ligands. XXXII. Reactions of the Metal Hydrides π-C₅H₅(CO)₃MH (M = Cr, Mo, W) with Diphosphanes [Ph_2?nY_nP]₂ (Y = I, CN, SiMe₃; n = 2, 1, 0) The reactions of π-C₅H₅(CO)₃MH (M = Cr, Mo, W) ( 1a – c ) with the symmetric diphosphanes (Ph₂P)₂, [Ph(CN)P]₂, [(CN)₂P]₂, and the cyclophosphane (PPh)₅, respectively, occur under cleavage of the P? P bond. The reactivity decreases in the series The tendency to form binuclear complexes reflects the basicity of the metallated phosphanes π-C₅H₅(CO)₃MPRR′ and increases in the order P(CN)₂ < P(CN)Ph ? P(Ph)H < PPh₂. Iodine containing diphosphanes [Ph(I)P? P(I)Ph and P₂I₄] undergo redox reactions with 1a – c , yielding π-C₅H₅(CO)₃MI and unstable iodo-diphosphanes. No P? P bond cleavage occurs in the reaction of the silyl substituted diphosphanes [Ph(SiMe₃)P]₂ and [(Me₃Si)₂P]₂ with 1a – c , but P? Si bond fission is the preferred reaction giving π-C₅H₅(CO)₃MSiMe₃.     

Metallkomplexe mit anionischen Liganden von Elementen der 4. Hauptgruppe. VIII. Pentacarbonyl-trihalogenstannido-metallat(O)-Komplexe von chrom,molybdän und wolfram mit fluor- und jodhaltigen stannidliganden

Metal Complexes with Anionic Ligands of Elements of the Main Group IV. VIII Pentacarbonyltrihalogenostannidometalate(O) Complexes of Chromium, Molybdenum, and Tungsten with Fluorine and Iodine Containing Trihalogenostannido Ligands In methylenechloride [As(C₆H₅)₄][SnF₃] readily reacts with the metalhexacarbonyls forming the arsoniumsalts of the pentacarbonyltrifluorostannidometalate(O) complexes, [M(CO)₅SnF₃]^? (M ? Cr, Mo, W). Exclusively by the reaction of the intermediately formed complex Cr(CO)₅THF only one pure triiodostannidometalate(O) Complex, [N(C₂H₅)₄][Cr(CO)₅SnJ₃], could be isolated. The trihalogenostannidometalate(O) complexes [M(CO)₅SnClX₂]^? (X ? F: M ? Cr, Mo, W; X ? J: M ? Cr) could be prepared by SnX₂-insertion reactions of the [M(CO)₅Cl]^? complexes. The bonding properties of the halogenostannide ions are discussed on the bases of the IR spectra of their metalate(O) complexes.
